Merger With LINKBANCORP, Inc.
Current report
Effective on May 1, 2026, Burke & Herbert Financial Services Corp., a Virginia corporation, completed its previously announced merger with LINKBANCORP, Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation, pursuant to the LNKB Merger Agreement between Burke & Herbert and LNKB. See Note 1 -Nature of Business Activities and Significant Accounting Policies, in Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding the LNKB merger.
Current report
In recent years, commercial real estate (“CRE”) markets have been impacted by economic disruptions, including those resulting from the effects of increases in remote work in urban centers and changes in the characteristics of certain urban centers. CRE loans are generally viewed as having a greater risk of default than other types of loans and depend on cash flows from the owner’s business or the property’s tenants to service the debt. The borrower’s cash flows may be affected significantly by general economic conditions. Adverse conditions in the real estate market or the general business climate and economy or in occupancy rates where the property is located could increase the likelihood of default. In particular, CRE office borrowers in central business districts have been impacted by decreased property valuations, oversupply due to remote work trends, and rising interest rates which has increased default rates and impeded their ability to secure new financing. CRE loans generally have large loan balances, and therefore, the deterioration of one or a few of these loans could cause a significant increase in the percentage of our non-performing loans. An increase in non-performing loans could result in a loss of earnings from these loans, an increase in the provision for loan losses, and an increase in charge-offs, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Previous report
Net income applicable to common shares for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, was $86.4 million, compared to net income applicable to common shares of $15.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The $70.9 million increase was due to results that reflect a full nine months of combined income after the Merger completion for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024.
Previous report
Net interest income increased by $65.9 million to $221.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $155.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The main driver for this increase was results that reflect a full nine months of combined income after the Merger.

Previous report
Net interest income totaled $221.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $155.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase in net interest income was primarily driven by results that reflect a full nine months of combined income after the Merger as well as higher rates on interest-earning assets, lower rates on interest-bearing liabilities, and higher accretion income, as a result of the Merger. Accretion income associated with acquired loans totaled $31.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $28.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Amortization expense associated with fair value marks for time deposits, subordinated debt, and trust preferred securities totaled $5.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $6.3 million the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Previous report
The yield for the taxable loan portfolio was 6.87% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to 7.01% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily the result of lower accretion income and an increase in the average balance of non-accrual loans.
Previous report
The tax-adjusted yield on the total investment securities portfolio was 3.89% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to 3.81% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was mainly due to higher yields in our investment portfolio.
Previous report
The yield on interest-bearing deposits decreased to 2.44% during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, from 2.86% during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to lower market interest rates on deposit products reflective of decreases in the Federal Funds Rate and other market rates.

For acquisitions, we are required to record the assets acquired, including identified intangible assets such as core deposit intangibles, and the liabilities assumed at their respective fair values. The difference between consideration and the net fair value of assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. Management uses significant estimates and assumptions to value such items, including projected cash flows, repayment rates, default rates and losses assuming default, discount rates, and realizable collateral values. The allowance for credit losses for PCD loans is recognized within acquisition accounting. The allowance for credit losses for non-PCD assets is recognized as provision for credit losses in the same reporting period as the acquisition. Fair value adjustments are amortized or accreted into the income statement over the estimated life of the acquired assets or assumed liabilities. The purchase date valuations and any subsequent adjustments determine the amount of goodwill recognized in connection with the acquisition. The use of different assumptions could produce significantly different valuation results, which could have material positive or negative effects on our results of operations. The carrying value of goodwill recorded must be reviewed for impairment on an annual basis, as well as on an interim basis if events or changes indicate that the asset might be impaired. An impairment loss must be recognized for any excess of carrying value over fair value of the goodwill.

Previous wording
The Company is using an internally developed model that produces an estimate of the allowance for credit losses as the lifetime expected credit losses of the loan portfolio. This model uses a remaining useful life or WARM method within defined-contractual terms by federal call codes. The model forecasts net charge-off rates by call codes using ordinary least squares (“OLS”) regression models that use macroeconomic variables to forecast the Company’s and peer banks’ net charge-off rates. These models are used to produce reasonable and supportable forecasts of net charge-off rates. The macroeconomic variables utilized by the Company include variables that meet defined criteria in forecasting credit losses for our loan portfolio. These variables include, but are not limited to, unemployment rates, housing and commercial real estate prices, gross domestic product levels, equity market conditions or interest rates, as well as other variables that are portfolio-specific, such as those pertaining to commercial real estate or to residential loan portfolios. The Company sources the macroeconomic variables and the macroeconomic variable forecasts that it uses in its ACL model from the Standard & Poor’s Global Market Intelligence and from CoStar Group.

Previous wording
The Company currently has set an initial reasonable and supportable period of two years with a subsequent straight-line loss-rate reversion for the following four quarters before then utilizing historical average loss rates in remaining periods of the modeled contractual terms. Based on management’s analysis, adjustments may be applied for additional factors impacting the risk of loss in the loan portfolio beyond information used to calculate reasonable and supportable, reversion and post-reversion period forecasts on collectively evaluated loans. As the reasonable and supportable and reversion period forecasts reflect the use of the macroeconomic variable loss drivers, management may consider that an additional or reduced reserve is warranted through qualitative risk factors based on current and expected conditions, including those that utilize supplemental information relative to the macroeconomic variable loss drivers. Qualitative adjustments considered by management include the following: (i) management’s assessment of macroeconomic forecasts used in the model and how those forecasts align with management’s overall evaluation of current expected credit conditions; (ii) organization specific risks such as credit concentrations, collateral specific risks, nature and size of the portfolio, and external factors that may ultimately impact credit quality; and (iii) underwriting and delinquency trends. The qualitative factors applied at September 30, 2025, and the importance and levels of the qualitative factors applied, may change in future periods depending on the level of changes to items such as the uncertainty of economic conditions and management’s assessment of the level of credit risk within the loan portfolio as a result of such changes, compared to the amount of ACL calculated by the model. Management reviews supplemental data sources including historical net charge-off rates and data measuring other specific credit outcomes from its systems of record in supporting qualitative factors. However, qualitative factor evaluations are inherently imprecise and require significant management judgment.
Current wording
The Company currently has set an initial reasonable and supportable forecast period of two years with subsequent immediate reversion to the historical average loss rates in remaining periods of the modeled contractual terms. Based on management’s analysis, adjustments may be applied for additional factors impacting the risk of loss in the loan portfolio beyond information used to calculate reasonable and supportable forecast and the subsequent reversion to historical loss information on collectively evaluated loans. As the reasonable and supportable forecast and reversion period forecast reflects the use of the macroeconomic variable loss drivers, management may consider that an additional or reduced reserve is warranted through qualitative risk factors based on current and expected conditions, including those that utilize supplemental information relative to the macroeconomic variable loss drivers. Qualitative adjustments considered by management include the following: (i) management’s assessment of macroeconomic forecasts used in the model and how those forecasts align with management’s overall evaluation of current expected credit conditions; (ii) organization specific risks such as credit concentrations, collateral specific risks, nature and size of the portfolio, and external factors that may ultimately impact credit quality; and (iii) underwriting and delinquency trends. The qualitative factors applied at March 31, 2026, and the importance and levels of the qualitative factors applied, may change in future periods depending on the level of changes to items such as the uncertainty of economic conditions and management’s assessment of the level of credit risk within the loan portfolio as a result of such changes, compared to the amount of ACL calculated by the model. Management reviews supplemental data sources including historical net charge-off rates and data measuring other specific credit outcomes from its systems of record in supporting qualitative factors. However, qualitative factor evaluations are inherently imprecise and require significant management judgment.

The Company’s income tax expense, deferred tax assets and liabilities, and reserves for unrecognized tax benefits reflect management’s best assessment of estimated taxes due. The calculation of each component of the Company’s income tax provision is complex and requires the use of estimates and judgments in its determination. As part of the Company’s evaluation and implementation of business strategies, consideration is given to the regulations and tax laws that apply to the specific facts and circumstances for any tax positions under evaluation. Management closely monitors tax developments on both the federal and state level in order to evaluate the effect they may have on the Company’s overall tax position and the estimates and judgments used in determining the income tax provision and records adjustments, as necessary.

The commercial real estate (“CRE”) sector has been impacted significantly by rising interest rates and rising vacancies, increasing the prospect of default that borrowers may face due to the record amount of upcoming maturities. In addition, the office market continues to struggle with fewer employees in the office after the COVID-19 pandemic. The Bank continues to monitor its commercial real estate portfolio by reviewing various credit risk and concentration reports. However, in late 2024 interest rates began falling, and in January 2025 the U.S. president signed an executive order requiring all federal employees to return to offices on a five-day-a-week basis. Additionally, several large private-sector employers instituted similar return to office mandates in 2024. The start of the U.S. federal government’s new fiscal year began October 1, 2025, without the passage of Appropriation Acts or a Continuing Resolution (“CR”) and the government began its shutdown procedures, which included furloughing government civilian employees. It is unclear at this time when either a CR or Appropriations Act will be enacted. Notwithstanding the government shutdown, we would expect the federal return to office mandate, combined with mandates at private sector employers and decreasing interest rates could help the region’s CRE office market; however, we cannot be certain that this would be the case or the degree to which such mandates may improve the CRE sector in our markets in 2025, if at all. Additionally, recent reductions (including during the government shutdown), and possible further reductions, in the federal workforce, combined with general economic uncertainty as a result of federal trade and other policies could continue to challenge the economy and impact the CRE sector. The Bank’s exposure to CRE at September 30, 2025, was $2.8 billion, or 50.4%, of its gross loan portfolio, not including owner-occupied commercial real estate and acquisition, construction & development. Commercial real estate as a percent of total assets at September 30, 2025, was 35.5%, not including owner-occupied commercial real estate and acquisition, construction & development. Including owner-occupied commercial real estate and acquisition, construction & development, total exposure was at $3.8 billion, or 68.1%, of our total gross loans and 48.1% of total assets at September 30, 2025.

CRE loans are monitored through various processes that include payment monitoring, financial reporting, and covenant compliance monitoring, and annual reviews for larger relationships. Furthermore, construction loans are monitored throughout the life of the project and the construction loan administration function is centralized within the Credit Risk Management team. Monitoring the market conditions is also an important component of prudent CRE risk management. Quarterly construction progress reviews are also completed on acquisition, construction & development loans. For each loan, management reviews the adequacy of the construction budget, adequacy of the interest reserve, pace of construction, and review of any loan covenants.

The Bank believes its underwriting and monitoring standards for commercial real estate loans are sufficient to evaluate its loan portfolio and keep it from incurring significant losses. The largest concentration of the Bank’s commercial real estate loans are in Virginia (approximately 47.3%), and the Bank does not have significant exposure to any economic areas of the country that are underperforming the national economy. Additionally, the Bank’s overall exposure to the “Office Building / Condo” collateral type is 16.5% of total commercial real estate loans, including owner-occupied commercial real estate and acquisition, construction & development. The Bank believes that the combined loan portfolio is well-diversified, generally seasoned, manageable, and will outperform the industry in terms of performance through the economic cycle; however, our underwriting, review, and monitoring cannot eliminate all of the risks related to these loans. For further discussion see Part II, Item 1A. “Risk Factors”.

Applicable capital rules under the Basel III Framework require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum Common Equity Tier 1 (“CET 1”), Tier 1, and Total Capital ratios, along with a capital conservation buffer, effectively resulting in new minimum capital ratios. The capital conservation buffer is designed to absorb losses during periods of economic stress. Banking institutions with a ratio of CET 1 capital to risk-weighted assets above the minimum but below the conservation buffer (or below the combined capital conservation buffer and counter-cyclical capital buffer, when the latter is applied) will face constraints on dividends, equity repurchases, and compensation based on the amount of the shortfall. The Basel III Framework also provides for a “counter-cyclical capital buffer” that is applicable to only certain covered institutions and does not have any current applicability to the Company or the Bank.

Non-interest income increased 28.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025. The largest dollar increase was a $1.8 million increase in net gains on securities for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025. This increase was driven by an increase in sales in our AFS securities portfolio for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025. Increases in fiduciary and wealth management, income from company-owned life insurance, and other non-interest income exceeded declines in service charges and fees income and bank debit and other card revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Previous wording
Non-interest expense decreased $2.7 million, or 5.4%, for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by continued operating efficiency gains, post-merger, that were realized after the merger and during the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024. The largest dollar decrease for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $791.0 thousand for equipment rentals, depreciation and maintenance, mostly driven by continued operating efficiencies, while core deposit intangible amortization declined due to its accelerated amortization method. ATM, card and network expense, pensions and other employee benefits, and other non-interest expense also declined due to continued operating efficiencies for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024.

The yield on our short-term borrowings for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, was 3.88%, compared to 4.42% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease was due to decreases in the Federal Funds Rate and other short-term market rates and the addition of derivative swaps that decreased our cost of borrowing. The yield on our subordinated debt assumed in the Merger was 9.65% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to 10.21% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

The following table sets forth the major components of net interest income and the related yields and rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, and September 30, 2024, for comparison (dollars in thousands).
Previous report — wording carried elsewhere
The following table sets forth the dollar difference in interest earned and paid for each major category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities for the noted periods and the amount of such change attributable to changes in average balances (volume) or changes in average interest rates. Interest income and interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, and September 30, 2024, are annualized using actual days over calendar year method. Volume variances are equal to the increase or decrease in average balance multiplied by current period rates, and rate variances are equal to the increase or decrease in rate times prior period average balances. Variances attributable to both rate and volume changes are calculated by multiplying the change in rate by the change in average balance and are allocated to the volume variance. See table below (in thousands).

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin
Previous report — wording carried elsewhere
Net interest income is the principal component of the Company’s income stream and represents the difference, or spread, between interest and fee income generated from earning assets and the interest expense paid on deposits and borrowed funds. Net interest margin, stated as a percentage, is the yield obtained by dividing the difference between interest income generated on earning assets and the interest expense paid on all funding sources by average earning assets.
Previous report — wording carried elsewhere
Fluctuations in interest rates as well as changes in the volume and mix of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities can impact net interest income and net interest margin. Management closely monitors both total net interest income and the net interest margin and seeks to maximize net interest income without exposing the Company to an excessive level of interest rate risk through our asset and liability policies. Interest rate risk is managed by monitoring the pricing, maturity and repricing options of all classes of interest-bearing assets and liabilities.

(6)The net interest margin represents FTE net interest income as a percent of average interest-earning assets for the period.
Previous report — wording carried elsewhere
Taxable-equivalent net interest margin, as presented above, is calculated by dividing FTE net interest income by total average earning assets. Net interest income, on an FTE basis, is a non-GAAP financial measure that the Company believes provides a more accurate picture of the interest margin for comparative purposes. Management believes FTE net interest income is a standard practice in the banking industry, and when net interest income is adjusted on an FTE basis, yields on taxable, nontaxable, and partially taxable assets are comparable; however, the adjustment to an FTE basis has no impact on net income. FTE net interest income is calculated by adding the tax benefit on certain financial interest-earning assets, whose interest is tax-exempt, to total interest income then subtracting total interest expense. As a non-GAAP measure, FTE net interest income should not be considered as a substitute for the nearest comparable GAAP measure, net interest income. Net interest income shown elsewhere in this presentation is GAAP net interest income. The following table reconciles GAAP net interest income to FTE net interest income (in thousands).
